Network Protocols

[Audio] Good afternoon everyone. Today, we'll be discussing the various network protocols, web and email protocols, domain name servers, and dynamic host configuration protocols, and file transfer protocols. We'll explore their purposes, how they work, and see how they can be used to our advantage. Let's get started..

[Audio] Technology has become an essential part of daily life and requires tools to help manage, create and secure data. Examples of common tools include programming languages such as Python, Java and C++; Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) such as Visual Studio and IntelliJ; version control systems like Git, Subversion and Mercurial; cloud computing platforms such as AWS, Azure and the Google Cloud Platform; data analysis tools like Excel, R and Tableau; content management systems like Wordpress and Drupal; communication and collaboration tools such as Slack, Teams and Zoom; and cybersecurity tools including firewalls, antivirus software and intrusion detection systems. Network protocols provide a basis for understanding how these tools interact and enable data transferring between network devices. A variety of web and email protocols, as well as DNS, DHCP and file transfer protocols, are essential for communication and collaboration over the internet..

[Audio] Common protocols such as TCP/IP and HTTP provide a uniform way to organize, transmit, and receive data over long d These protocols are the foundation of the internet, enabling communication, collaboration, and information sharing..

[Audio] It is essential for modern computing to have a good understanding of network protocols such as Domain Name Server (DNS) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). DNS allows us to use website names, such as www.example.com, rather than recollecting a number. Additionally, DHCP is utilized to assign individual numbers, known as IP addresses, to the numerous devices on a network. Both of these protocols are vital pieces of technology that permit us to make use of the internet productively and securely..

[Audio] Computers rely on certain protocols to ensure that data is sent and received properly. File transfer protocols (FTP, SFTP, and TFTP) are essential rules that govern the transmission of files between computers. FTP is the most commonly used protocol for sending data, while SFTP provides an extra layer of encryption for greater security. TFTP is better suited for smaller files. By abiding by these protocols, computers can ensure data is delivered to the right destination..

[Audio] Using modern technology, you can boost your productivity and efficiency by taking advantage of a range of tools and services that make it easier to manage your time and tasks and gain access to important information from any location..
